I can't figure out how to remove or uninstall the dark page lines at the bottom of every page in
the document. The "insert" menu won't allow me to do it, nor will anything in the "paragraph" menu.
Where can I look for a solution?

Check Format > Page, Borders tab. is there a line shown under the gray box in the User-defined
area? If so, click on that so it disappears, and the lines should go away.
Stephen and I worked off-list on this. It turns out that the lines were coming from the fact that
most (but not all!) of the *paragraphs* were set to have a thick bottom border (why? who knows?) but
with the 'Merge with next paragraph' option set, only the bottoms of pages and the final paragraph
showed the line. The whole thing was in the Default paragraph style. Displaying that style showed no
bottom border, and applying the style did not change anything. However, selecting the whole
document, modifying the style to apply a bottom border, accepting that, then modifying the style
again to have no bottom border, removed them all.
